MAY30TH :NOT ONLY BIAFRANS,NIGERIAN SHOULD ALSO OBSERVE
Anytime the issues of Biafra is been mention, a careless, heartless and genocidal government like Nigeria and Britain always scamper for safety, looking for a slogan titled ONE NIGERIA as cover up against there numerous evil deeds.
Its true that I was not yet born in the days when our fathers war a legion with a single handedness, but the truth been said, the reasons and stories I heard that forced them to take a drastic decision of seceding in Nigeria were still happening today under my watch as a youth, and if an opportunity like that should ever call again, I will also be forced to war Nigeria governmentâŚ
What British and Nigeria  government term as a civil war was not what it seems, what took place in 1967/70s was more of a pogrom, an ethnic cleansing and a brutal extermination. With a pure purpose of wiping out the extinction of IGBO raceâŚ
Offcourse, the pogrom was later turn to our own advantage because it forced our engineers to be creative, producing weapons with local materials from a scratch.
Today, Biafrans has the best engineers and scientist the world can boast of.
But the pains of the war is still fresh in our mind, body and soul..
Notwithstanding, may3oth been declared as a periodic anniversary for the remembrance of Biafra hero/heroines day ought to be celebrated by Nigeria , it supposed to be a day of reckoning for slaughtering over 3.5 million people including children, men and women, a worst pogrom ever committed in the History of Africa and the world .
But to the foolishness of Nigerian government, instead of celebrating this day, they always chosed it as a bloody day: a day to kill more BIAFRANS, that was why during the last year remembrance day, Nigerian army clamp down on IPOB at NKPOR in Anambra state, slaughtering over 150 of them, injuring over 200. Upto this moment, Nigerian government had never set up an investigative panel to probe the Nigerian armyâs Gestapo style of operations against the people of Biafra.
It is also true that after the war Nigerian government scraped everything concerning the war in academic curriculum, this is done  so that posterity will not ask  what happens and why their fore-fathers where forced to war with bare handsâŚ
But today, most of us were  been forced to learn our history in a hard way..
Biafra quest is a things of ideology which can never be murderedâŚ
